This 5K event is designed for students, parents, and educators to come and engage in Healthy STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) experiences with the community. The event will combine a 5K with a Healthy STEM fair, where participants will learn about educational STEM opportunities and organizations in the Utah community. It's a great way to kick off a great summer for K-12 students!

Participants will receive a Healthy STEM t-shirt and water bottle. Prize packs of PE equipment will be awarded for the schools (one elementary, one middle, and one high school) that have the highest participation.
